So, in spite of current events and the prevailing need for sanity, actual facts and perspective right now, STILL these lunatics continue with this shit.

"Solve the white male effect"

WTF???

Is there anything these fuckers won't co-opt??

"The white male is the biggest risk in spreading the virus" says the white male.

This guy is a university lecturer. It really does make you wonder how many people in these types of positions think like this.

Very aptly put. Really highlights the perverse madness of this guy and his ilk, doesn't it? I honestly cannot imagine hating my own race and gender like that (or anyone else's, for that matter) and if you do, you cannot be remotely mentally healthy.

Indeed. Frightening, isn't it? This guy is in a position of influence and this is how he abuses it and at a time like this. So, he's concerned about the spreading of Coronavirus? Oddly unconcerned about the effects of spreading hatred and self-loathing, though. The question is, which is the worst contagion?

They're all full of crap, mate. I was expecting an article like this actually.

Now they must reach out to the brightest in disaster management, behavioural economics, nudge theory, marketing and public relations, and ask them to solve the White Male Effect conundrum before it is too late.

This effort must include women, ethnic minorities and younger people rather than another pale male cohort — otherwise the same mistakes will be repeated and more lives will be lost.

Probably has a "No pasty boys" sign sellotaped to his classroom door.

Wouldn't surprise me. Having to climb into his own classroom through a window would suit him nicely.

Are we absolutely certain that Richard Stokoe isn't a pseudonym for Paul Cornell?

Oh for the love of god. This article is seriously depressing. I always thought that if aliens invaded, or Zombies took over we would all band together. Whilst this isn't quite that scenario LOL, it is as close to a sci fi movie appocalypse as we have come and these arseholes are still picking fights with each other over the most unimportant, trivial differences. It'd be funny if it wasn't so pathetic.

Agreed. Perhaps the greatest leveller would not be a contagion or a "Zombie Apocalypse" but a return to hunter-gathering. Under those circumstances, you can forget all the posturing about "prescibed gender roles"; everyone would be going where their natural skillset takes them and the likes of Stokoe would be the first down the nearest Velociraptor's throat...

One can but dream...
